Disclaimer: Once upon a time, in an emerald isle that sat upon a sparkling sapphire sea, there was a boy born in the country of England, in the borders of the land of Northumberland. Thus: he was a Geordie, and the name he was given at birth was Paul. He didn't own Dragonball Z, nor did he ever aspire to own it. The end.
AN: Well, I'm off on the sic (picked up Diarrhoea and Vomiting from some god damn mother loving patients at work, damn it! I haven't eaten for THREE DAYS!) for the next few days, so I'm writing this next chapter since I have the time. At a reply to the reviews:
Tokra: - I am sorta using the Tolkien-esque Balrogs, because they are so cool. But no, I didn't get the idea from LotR, it's from his even better book, called the Silmarilan, which is basically all the myths and lore of Middle-earth. Sod hobbits, it's Gods (Valar) and Elves and Men and Dwarves vs The Undead, Melkior (Morgoth) and Dragons and the Balrogs, the dragonherders
Neko: Thanks thumbs up
Manon: Wait and find out.
Maxine: You reviewed!! Seems like AAAges since I last got a review from you!! Uh… I mean, thanks! looks at Review list thingie Okay, I'm in April and I got bored of looking; where've you been?!
The end.
Chapter 26: The Trouble With Monsters
Goku appeared with a feint shimmer, a look of concentration on his face that lased for several seconds, before the weight of gravity forced itself unexpectedly upon his shoulders. He and the others that had appeared dropped several feet before they righted themselves, the group of Saiyans and four demi-Saiyans hovering in the air as they looked about to take in their position.
"Why are we here?" Vegeta asked, holding Bra as he also looked about.
"Well, I concentrated on a familiar Kai back home, it felt like Piccolo's, but…"
"Goku, I've been expecting you for a while!" A cold, hissing and familiar voice called out. Vegeta whirled around and narrowed his eyes at the thing before him, and he raised the corner of his lips in a snarl.
"Cell," he hissed. "I hoped you would return. We have an old score to settle."
"Ah, Vegeta. What makes you so sure you can defeat me?" the Bionic Android sneered, lightning crackling all over his body. "I'm much more powerful than I was, you Saiyans are such a marvelous race, your strength doubling at near-death. And what could be so near to death then actually dying, hmm?"
"What is this… thing?" Tomatta asked.
"This is Cell," Goku answered to his cousin, "a creature we fought with a while ago. He nearly destroyed the Earth."
"Twice," added Gohan.
"Was he tough?" Raditz asked.
"Very – he was as powerful as a Super Saiyan Two by the end of it all," Gohan said.
"Super Saiyan Two? There's a level beyond Super Saiyan?!" Nappa asked.
"Why does everybody keep asking me that?" Gohan muttered to himself as he just watched Cell shortly, before shrugging to himself. "He's not so tough anymore."
"Yeah, I could take him without even transforming," Goku scoffed.
"Really? Interesting," Cell purred, flexing his muscles gently. "I'd really be interested in seeing this…"
"Any time!" Goku said, breaking free of the group.
"Kakkarot, wait!" Vegeta snapped, handing his young daughter to an un-suspecting Raditz, who held her at arms length as if she would explode.
Goku paused and turned to look at the Prince who had called on him. "What is it?"
"Let me take him out first – I have a matter of pride to settle with this bastard," Vegeta said cracking his knuckles, never taking his eyes of the green menace.
"But… he killed me!" Goku whined.
"I promise I won't kill him, then you can beat him up after he regenerates, fair enough?" Vegeta said, testily.
Goku thought for a moment, and then nodded. "Sure."
"It's a deal then!" Vegeta said, grinning and ascending into Super Saiyan before he charged towards Cell, then paused as he looked at the empty space on the desert floor. "Hey, where'd he go?!"
"He ran off when you were arguing amongst yourselves," Raditz pointed out, still holding a volatile infant as far away from his delicate nasal passages as he possibly could.
"Oh," Vegeta said, deflating slightly and dropping out of Super Saiyan. "You know, I was really looking forward to that!"
"Me too," Goku muttered. "Ah well, let's get back home!"
"Kakkarot, there's a problem with that…" Vegeta said, facing the direction of South City.
"What's wrong, dad?" Trunks asked.
"Remember that hero you adopted?" Vegeta asked, turning towards his eldest offspring.
"Yeah?" Trunks said, remembering back to Tapion, the Hero of the Brave, the one who had given him the sword that hangs on his bedroom wall over the bed.
Vegeta scowled as he also remembered those days. "Well, his pet's back."
** * ** * **
The Hildegarn rampaged across the city, absorbing anybody that got in its path, and demolishing buildings with a casual swipe of its long, sinuous tail. Clothing littered the streets as it's large, green scaly hide terrorized South City once again, the surviving inhabitants thinking it was finally over after the Golden warriors had destroyed it Along with a very large part of the city – which was still under repair construction.
A huge scaly foot slammed down, a large explosion from a parked car being crushed not being noticed by the gargantuan that strolled leisurely about. It's horned skull and long crest glimmered in the sunlight, and it let loose a terrible roar tat shook the buildings themselves.
"Well, I see that being dead hasn't helped your temperament at all," Vegeta quipped as he rose up before it.
"Vegeta, we're still not powerful enough to take it on ourselves!" Gohan yelled.
"I know that, you fool! I'm trying to pro…" the Prince's sentence was cut short as the whip-like tail snapped out of nowhere, catching Vegeta across the body and sending him hurtling back. Stopping himself using a burst of Kai, Vegeta roared and flashed back towards the Hildegarn, in what seemed like a repeat performance of the last encounter with the beast, charging up a large golden energy bolt between his hands and hurling it into the side of the beast's golden head, where again it exploded into a large ball of billowing flame and smoke.
Vegeta remembered what happened last time, and he swerved aside as a fist slammed out from behind him, the large talons grazing the back of his blue shirt, barely missing the flesh on his back the Prince twirled and launched a volley o kai-blasts into Hindegarn's hide.
"Trunks, get the sword!" Goku cried. "Hurry!"
"On it!" the young demi-Saiyan called back, diving into the house through his bedroom window, sending shards of glass exploding into his room.
He glanced about quickly, muttering "I can clean the glass up later" as he snatched the large weapon from it's rack and charged back outside, where he saw Brolli's large frame charge over and slam a fist into the monster's body. Trunks saw Brolli's look of shock as the large green monster evaporated into mist, and then reform around him, allowing the beast to counter from behind.
Brolli swore to himself and tried to dodge the blow, but it was too fast and too late as a talon ripped through the muscles of is shoulder, sending his crimson blood arcing through the air.
"That's it, now you're really pissed me off!" Brolli roared as his hair rose as flashed golden-green, turquoise lightning blasting across his body as he hurled a green blast of kai into the face of the creature. The explosion from the fist-sized kai-blast ripped apart the street and sent the Hildegarn staggering back slightly, but unbelievably, it was unharmed.
"What the fuck?! This thing's tougher than me!" Brolli cried in dismay as the thing blurred and struck him aside, the Legendary Super Saiyan plowing through several buildings before hitting the deck.
Trunks knew immediately what he had to do. Charging forwards, he ducked and weaved about the limbs of the Hildegarn as the others tried to provoke it, hurling kai blasts into its flanks, throwing kicks, aiming punches and swooping in so close they could see their reflections in its huge eyes. But every time it would simply vaporize into mist and reform somewhere away from Trunks and counter any attack made against it.
"Trunks, what are you waiting for?!" Goku cried as he blocked a downward strike from hand twice as large as himself, though he was himself slammed downward and almost into the ground.
"I can't get at it, it's moving too fast! I can't tell where it's going to reform!!" Trunks shouted in frustration.
"Then use your instincts!" Gohan cried, moments before the huge tail swatted him away like a puny insect.
"I'll try…" Trunks said, unsheaving the sword from it's blood-red scabbard, the light gleaming down along the blade as Trunks waited patiently.
Brolli blasted back through the debris the fight was picking up into the air, and slammed his fist into it again, the creature buckling under the tremendous force he blow cost, and then slammed a fist upwards. Brolli dodged, and provoked another attack, this one somewhat clumsier than the last.
This is it! Trunks thought, leaping at the opportunity. He sailed downwards, and swung the sword through the air with the sound of the breeze tearing across a field, the blade slicing clean through tail of the beast. Hildegarn paused and reared back in pain as it roared, blood and other liquids pouring from its severed tail and stump.
"This is it, Vegeta! Do that thing you did last time!" Vegeta shouted, swerving around and firing a volley of blasts into Hildegarn's flanks.
"Give me time, Vegeta!" Goku cried, swerving around a flailing hand as it tried to cleave him in two.
"Time is a luxury we don't have!" Tomatta cried as he hurled a blast of his own under the Hildegarn's legs, making the creature stumble slightly.
"It's weakened already, kill it, Kakkarot! Send this thing back to the hell it came from!" Vegeta roared again as he struggled to keep a clawed hand from swiping too close to his belly.
"One more moment…" Goku said, more to himself than to any of the others.
"Dad…" Goten whimpered as fist came out, striking the youngest of the team down into the ground, knocking him unconscious as he bounced of the shattered road.
"Now!" Goku cried as he leapt towards the monster. Upon hearing the shriek coming from behind, the Hildegarn whirled around and lunged up with a claw, heading straight for Goku. The Saiyan closed his eyes and hoped for the best, he knew he couldn't move now, he had to take this one opportunity to slay he beast again.
When a large green explosion, and the sound of the Hildegarn roaring in pain once again, reached his ears and eyes, Goku's expression changed to one of determination as Brolli avoided the mangled arm that dropped to the floor where he was standing.
"Finish this bastard of, Kakkarot! Teach him that we Saiyans are truly the masters of the universe!" Brolli roared as he fired another green blast of kai into the Hildegarn.
"DRAGONFIST ATTACK!" Goku cried as he summoned all his energy into this last resort attack, a golden glow surrounding his outstretched arm as he thundered towards the monster. As he neared to point blank, the glow formed the shape of a golden dragon, similar to Shenlong in appearance, coiled around the length of his arm then around his whole boy. As Goku's fist connected with the Hildegarn's body, the Dragon lunged, its maw opened wide as it toe straight through the hard shell of the monster before coming about and entwining itself about the large insect, just as it had done before.
Goku sailed straight through the Hildegarn's body, emerging through the other side as the beast writhed in agony in the clutches of the golden Kai-dragon. Moments later, it exploded with a deafening boom that shook the entire land, shattering windows and sending and buildings around-about crashing to the floor. Capsule Corps's bubble shell cracked and splinters horribly, shattering in some places, though it was less damaged than the previous battle with the Hildegarn had left it.
Goku dropped to the floor, his golden hair drooping as fading to black as he kneeled down on the ground, gulping in large amounts of air cease the burning in his muscles and lungs.
"Did we get it?" he asked, straitening up. Brolli landed beside him and patted Goku on the shoulder. Goku turned around and looked up at the much taller Saiyan, taller even than Nappa, and noticed that the ugly wound across the chest and shoulder was already starting to heal quickly.
"Yes, little Kakkarot, you got it," Brolli said with a slight grin on his face.
"Well, you helped… with the arm and that…" Goku said, looking behind him at the severed arm, lying n the floor in a pool of its own blood.
"We all helped… in our own way," Brolli answered. "I only cleared the path."
"What do we do with these remains?" Raditz asked, poking his head out from where he, Turlus, Nappa, Cukumbri and Fru had taken refuge, letting the Super Saiyans take care of the work.
"We do what we did last time, we eat them." Trunks lied, always trying to be the joker, as he cleaned the mess on his sword on a piece of cloth he caught fluttering in the wind.
"Sounds good to me," Raditz said, heading towards the long tail and inspecting it. "That thing looks like it has enough meat on it to feed the whole Saiyan Army for a week!" Trunks went pale.
"You're kidding, right?" he asked. Vegeta and the other Saiyans, apart from Goku and Tomatta, laughed.
"Son, you don't know what it is to be a true Saiyan warrior until you have eaten the flesh of your fallen enemies!" Vegeta said, smiling with happy memories.
"Hey… remember that time back on…"
And so it began, the reminiscing of the three old comrades on their old adventures, eery so often one of them breaking down into laughter, or one of them becoming angry at a memory that should have long remained silent. But Gohan and Goku were troubled, they could still feel kai signature son the planet that were making them uneasy, signatures they hadn't felt for many years.
"Dad… I have to go do something…" Gohan said, looking towards his father.
"Yeah, me too son. I'll, uh… meet you back here tonight, okay?" Goku said, already heading off.
"Sure thing," Gohan said, doing the same.
** * ** * **
Goku came to a halt on the edge of a great glacier and looked about, not seeing anything, not could he feel anything. But then again, he wouldn't. Clouds of warm vapor poured from his mouth with every breath as he lifted himself into the air and flew through the glacier's jagged canyons of ice. After what felt like an age of searching, Goku paused and gave one last look about, and sighed
"Perhaps they didn't come back aft…" Goku's words were cut short by the three lines of energy blasts that streaked down from the sky above him, exploding on the walls either side of him and the ground beneath, causing the ice to collapse in and trap Goku under several hundred tons of frozen water.
"That got him," 14 said, grinning.
"He never knew what hit him!" 15 agreed.
"Idiots, you know better than to underestimate them!" a deeper voice growled. Both androids turned around to see a much larger, blue android with brilliant orange hair pointing up in a crown very similar to Vegeta's own.
"Yes, 13," the two smaller androids sad in unison, then turned back when their internal scouters started to soar.
The ice was starting to rise from the canyon, large boulders of the frozen liquid floating up into the air, a gap in the mirror-like surfaces showing Goku's scowling face every now and again.
"So… you are back," said Goku, flaring his golden aura and using his energy to toss the great blocks of ice aside.
"And so are you," 14 observed.
"I never left," Goku replied. "I just grew stronger."
"We'll see about…" 15's words were silenced as a green energy blast tore through his pale chest, causing the cyborg to shudder spasmodically before exploding violently, components and entrails to fly across the white landscape.
"Who the hell is that?!" 14 shrieked, diving aside as a second blast zipped through the air where he had been waiting, exploding against the glacier floor, sending up a great plume of ice and ice-cold water.
"His name isn't important," Goku said as Brolli thundered past 13's body and wheeled around, squaring up against 13.
"Is he a Saiyan?" the blue Super Android asked, looking at Brolli skeptically.
Brolli smiled grimly, his dark hair fluttering in the slight wind. "I'm the Legendary Super Saiyan."
"Really?" 13 asked, unimpressed.
"Really," Brolli repeated, his hair flashing turquoise as a golden aura leapt into the air around him.
"Well this is different." 15 observed. Perhaps if he had known this would be the last thing he said, he would have said something different, because at tat moment Brolli blurred and cut through small body with a kick so fast it left a golden streak in the air.
"Brolli, leave the blue one. He's mine – I owe him," Goku said as Brolli started to advance towards 13.
"As you wish, Kakkarot," Brolli said, and dropped back to a vantage point. He was unimpressed – he had followed Goku in the hopes to fight another worthy opponent, such as that Hildegarn monster, but instead had found three weaklings. He was hoping to see Goku toy with the large blue one, but when Goku simply charged at it and powered a kai blast on route, Brolli sighed and turned to head back to wherever it was he had come from, letting the large explosion from behind him become part of the background as he powered up and flew away.
** * ** * **
Gohan touched down, and he immediately spun around when another set of footsteps landed behind him. With his arm raised, ready to strike, he jumped when he saw the figure behind him was his younger brother.
"Goten, what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I saw you and dad leave, and I wanted to see what you were doing," Goten said, looking up innocently with his dark eyes. Now that Gohan saw him outside the heat of battle, he realized that he looked a little different. He didn't have such an innocent look about his eyes, and his hair had shifted too, so that it didn't look like his father's as much. He had also started to shed some of the puppy fat, and raw muscle was beginning to bulge out on his neck.
"When dad made his wishes, he brought back to Earth some of the people from before your time." Gohan explained.
"Like Uncle Raditz, and that big bald man? And the man that looks like dad?" Goten asked.
"Yeah, and there were some more. You saw Cell, right?" Goten nodded. "Well, after the Cell Games, there was another world tournament, held by some rich guy for his son's birthday. He offered it to people in outer space to compete in as well, busomething happened.
After the heats, the finalists had to fight it out on a [lace called Battle Island against a group of fighters lead by Hercule Satan, but when we got to the island the fighters were all dead, and Mr. Satan was nowhere to be seen." Gohan said.
"What happened?" Goten asked, enthralled by this murder mystery.
"Well, this… guy just came here and started killing everybody. Trunks… that is, the Trunks from the future, was fighting in the tournament too, and he took care of one of this guy's men. The rest of us got beat up, and Yamcha and Tien were almost killed.
Vegeta, as usual, just wouldn't give up, but he had lots of fight in him. I think he even landed a punch on Bojack himself." Gohan said, starting off deeper into the island towards the city where they had made their stand against Bojack's minions.
"Is that the leader?" Goten asked, following alongside his brother.
"Yeah, he was tough." Gohan replied.
"Tougher than dad?"
"I think so… but dad was in the afterlife then. We hadn't wished him back yet."
"Oh yeah… So, how did you defeat him?" Goten asked.
"By luck, pure luck!" a voice rang out from the shadows. Gohan looked up, and scowled. They had entered the city, but had been too engrossed in their conversation that they hadn't noticed.
"Come on out and fight, you coward!" Goten yelled, bunching his fists.
"Silence, little one. You wouldn't want to be hurt, now would you?" another voice called.
"I'm as little as you might think!" Goten shouted back.
A figure stepped out from the shadow of a ruined building, and then a second from a different shadow. One was shorter than the other, and slimmer built. The other was muscular and powerful looking, but both carried a gleam of intelligent malevolence in their eyes.
"Oh, it's you too. Where Bojack?" Gohan asked, looking to them.
"He's around," the shorter one said.
"I see. If you leave, I won't kill you for a second time. I'll let you go." Gohan said.
"What? What are you saying, Gohan? He called you…" Goten protested, bur Gohan waved him into silence.
"No, you won't beat us for a second time. We're ready for you, you Saiyan brat, and we're not going to fall as easily as before," the taller one said, pushing his hands out and splaying his fingers.
"No…" Gohan conceded. "You're going to be far easier. It's going to be almost no challenge destroying you both."
"Whatever," the short one said, opening his hand and sending a fine spread of glowing read wire-like lines of kai at Gohan and Goten, wrapping them up in the restraints.
"Is this still the best you have?" Gohan asked, shrugging his way out of the bindings and strolling forward. Goten struggled slightly, then burst into Super Saiyan Two, the threads being pushed away quickly.
"Your little pet ca do the golden thing," the short one mocked. His smile soon became a look of fear when Gohan disappeared, reappearing behind the two opponents.
"He's my brother," he said simply and sent his foot through them both in a single stroke. The two exploded into flames and smoke for a second time, and Gohan turned and sensed out for Bojack and his female companion, Aki.
"Where are they…" he muttered to himself.
"Why… why don't we just destroy the island? I mean, it looks deserted," Goten said, looking at the ruins.
"We don't know that for sure, anybody could be in here, hiding amongst the shadows."
"I guess…"
"Ah, there he is!" Gohan said, breaking into a run.
"Big brother, wait for me!" Goten cried, chasing after Gohan. The pair quickly entered a courtyard area, and standing atop a flight of steps to one end was Bojack, Aki sitting bored on the flagstones, idly fingering the fabric of her dress, their deep green skin contrasting with the brilliant orange hair crowning their heads.
"Ah, the brat's back. I was wondering if you would dare come back here," Bojack scoffed.
"Whatever," Gohan said, striding forward and up the steps. Bojack growled and this man-child's impertinence, and sent a burning bolt of red kai streaking towards the dark haired youth, who simply caught it in his hand and crushed it, the explosion engulfing half his body.
"As you can see, I'm not the same kid who beat you ten years ago either."
"But… how…" Aki said, standing up and backing away. Bojack wheeled around and struck her across the face, spinning her about and dropping her to the floor harshly.
"You will stay and fight, you cowardly bitch!" he spat, then turned and launched himself at Gohan. The green alien's clothes clothes burst from him as his body became swollen with power, his muscles swelling substantially and the thick veins and arteries standing out under his skin.
"I'll show you once and for all!" Bojack cried as he slammed out his fist, watching it connect with Gohan's lip, without so much as making the demi-Saiyan flinch. Bojack removed his fist and took a step back, looking into Gohan's dark, merciless eyes.
"This time, I'll make sure you never come back," he said, then blurring. Bojack's face contorted with pain as he fell back onto the steps, clutching at his chest as a blue light spilled through his fingers, from where Gohan had imbedded his kai blast in the green man's body.
Gohan took a step back and watched as Bojack cried in agony, the green flesh being torn apart from the inside out, being atomized piece by piece before finally becoming nothing.
"Bojack…" Aki whispered, watching all this from her place on the floor.
"You son of a…" a fifth voice cried out. Goten whirled around and blinked in mild surprise as a large, green skinned alien charged towards brandishing a sword. This one was young-looking, had thick orange hair and wore a deep red top with pale grey trousers. Instead of waiting to engage this weakling up close, Goten simply cupped both hands together and sent a kame-hame-ha towards this intruder, flash-frying him instantly, the partially-melted sword clattering to the ground.
"No… it can't be…" Aki said, picking her self up and heading back, jumping slightly as her back pressed against the cold wall of the building that had been behind her.
"You should have just ram," Gohan said, advancing on her.
"I can still run! Please!" Aki cried, looking around in desperation.
"Let her go, Gohan, C'mon, what could she possibly do? Even Krillin could beat her up!" Goten said, not wanting to see his brother demean himself by killing a girl.
Gohan scowled at Aki and growled. "Go, but if you ever cause trouble for this planet again, I'll kill you."
Aki swallowed hard and ran, the look on the man-child's face making it quite clear that he meant it. She flew from Battle island and never turned back once, heading straight for the place she had come from.
Gohan turned to his younger brother and smiled. "C'mon, let's get back to Capsule Corp."
** * ** * **
"Hey, hey!" Raditz said excitedly. "Remember that time when we blew up that city, and then Nappa tried to eat one of guy's heads?"
"Which time?" Vegeta asked, poking at a sausage on the plate. It was hard as lead, and probably just as deadly.
"What do you mean?" Raditz asked, looking at the smaller Saiyan.
"Well, from what I remember, going around, blasting idiots, and then eating their corpses was pretty much all we did," Vegeta replied, atomizing the offending morsel of food with a small blast of kai from the tip of his finger.
"Well, yeah… I guess… but it was fun. And Nappa's quite a good cook, considering." Raditz said, picking up something hard and brown and biting into it. "What the hell is this?"
"Considering what?" Nappa asked. "I think it's a pickle."
"Considering you're big, bald and stupid," Vegeta replied, taking the thing from Raditz's hand and throwing it across the garden. One of Trunks' puppies sniffed at the assumed pickle, yelped and ran back into the house.
The trio were clustered on a picnic bench with a plate of food in the middle, still talking about the 'good old days', which Vegeta realized hadn't been so good after all It had consisted of running from Frieza and doing the same thing over and over again until they had sent Raditz off to Earth to find out what Kakkarot had been doing with his time.
"There's only so many times that a man can find a planet, cleans a planet, eat the inhabitants," Vegeta said to himself, idly playing with a burnt crispy bit of unidentified black stuff. The other two looked at their Prince with shock.
"But, you were always the first one to kai-cook somebody and eat them," Nappa said.
"Yeah, sometimes you wouldn't even cook them first," Raditz added.
"Listen, you told me it was cooked!" Vegeta said, pointing an accusing finger at Goku's older brother.
"Heh, yeah that's true," Raditz said, running his hand through his long hair.
Goku reappeared with a flash, his fingers on his forehead, and he gave the three his trademark grin.
"Hey guys, what's up?" he asked.
"Nothing, brother. Just talking about the good old days," Raditz said. "The one's you missed."
"Good, pfft!" Vegeta said, waving his hand dismissively. "As pitiful as it sounds, I've had better adventures here on Earth, than when I was wandering the stars for that wretch Frieza."
"Speaking about Frieza, what ever happened to him?" Raditz asked.
"My son killed him," Vegeta said, seizing his beer on the table and drinking it. Raditz and Nappa both looked back over their shoulders where Trunks was sparring with Applor, then turned back wide-eyed.
"You mean…"
"No, not that son," Vegeta said, then looked up to see their confused expressions. "Well yes, that son. But it was him from the future.
"The future…" Nappa started, his eyes glazing over.
"It's complicated," Vegeta said, waving his hand to dismiss the subject.
"Uh…"
"What is it, Kakkarot?!" Vegeta snapped.
"I was just wondering, what do we do with all those Saiyans?" Goku asked.
"What Saiyans?" Vegeta asked testily.
"The ones we left… uh wherever." Goku explained.
"Oh, them. Well, I'm sure they can take care of themselves," Vegeta said,. Taking another swig of beer.
"Yeah, I guess. But, what if they can't? What if that place is barren?" Goku whined.
"They're Saiyans! Not bunch of weak baka humans," Vegeta explained.
"Alright… but I'm going to check up on them later, okay?"
"Fair enough, Kakkarot," Vegeta sighed and turned back to the others as Goku headed over to Tomatta and Turlus.
"So, you guys ready?" Goku asked.
"Definitely," Turlus responded. "I'm eager to get some fighting action in!"
"Alright then, since we're a LOT stronger than Turlus, I say we don't go Super, deal?" Goku suggested.
"Deal," Tomatta said, and the three headed towards the Gravity Room.
"You know, it's going to be fun having more Saiyans around!" Goku grinned, pausing momentarily to give a pleasant nod to Cukumbri and Fru, who were busy ogling Raditz.
"He's so hot!" Cukumbri said, biting her lower lip. Fru smiled at her young friend and patted her on the shoulder.
"Me thinks somebody wants a mate," she chided.
"So? He's gorgeous!" Cukumbri panted
"Woman, put your tongue away this instant. That is no way for a proud warrior to behave," Fru laughed, trying to drag Cukumbri away. "Besides, Brolli is so-ooo much hotter than Raditz."
"Now you've gone completely nuts!" Cukumbri said.
"I know, but hey, we're at a party!"
With the Earth saved once again from certain destruction at the hands of a maniac, the Z Fighters with their new friends and allies settle down and party. But how long will this tranquility last? As long as they can make it.
But, from now on, any wanna-be enemies of the Earth will have to watch their backs, now that the Legendary Super Saiyan has joined the ever more powerful Z-Fighters.
The End
AN Well, that's the end of Total War. I hope you enjoyed my story, and as Shindo said in review, we're working on a quasi-sequel already. It's going to be madness all over the place, as we introduce the Z Fighters as you've never seen them before!
So, until then; chill, stay cool, and remember: A Saiyan is for life, not just for Christmas!
Ja ne!
